Big news for employers.
From 1 July 2026, super will need to be paid at the same time as wages. That's a big shift from the current quarterly system, and it will affect how many businesses manage their payroll and cash flow.
The good news? There's still time to sort it.
Give us a call or send us a message, and we'll walk you through what it means for you. No jargon, no drama. Just practical advice from people who know your situation. 📞 (02) 4822 0555

Hands up if you've heard "great work/life balance" in a job ad and then discovered otherwise. 🙋
We get it. That's why we'd rather just show you what working at Laterals looks like.
Flexible hours. A team that looks out for each other. Two great regional towns. And a culture where you're trusted to get the job done without being chained to your desk.
We're always open to a good conversation with the right person. Send us a message if you want to know more.

Here's something we think makes Laterals a pretty special place to work. 👇
Our clients are local. The small business owners, farming families and tradies. The people we see at the footy, the school pickup, and the local shops. When we help them through a tough year or land them a result they didn't expect, they're genuinely grateful.
You don’t get that type of connection in a big-city firm.
We're growing, and we're looking for the right people to grow with us. Sound like your kind of place? Drop us a message or email [email protected]

It’s BAS time again

December quarter Business Activity Statements are due on 28 February. If it's been sitting in the "I'll get to it" pile, it’s time to get it sorted.

Our experienced team lodges BAS for tradies, contractors and small businesses right across the region. If you're already a client, get your paperwork to us, and we'll sort it. If you're not currently a client but would rather hand this off to someone who actually enjoys it, give us a call.

We’ll happily take this one off your hands.

Meet the team leading Laterals.
If you've walked through our doors in Goulburn or Crookwell, chances are you've met Tim, Rebecca or Paul.
Together, they lead our practice and look after our clients across the region: local businesses, farmers, and individuals trying to get their tax sorted without stress.
They're also locals. They live here, they're raising families here, and they genuinely care about seeing our communities thrive.
We'll introduce each of them properly over the coming months. A bit about their story, what they do, and why they love the work.
If you've been looking for an accountant who understands regional life, come and say hi. And if you're looking to join a friendly team who look out for each other, we're always keen to meet good people.

We're looking for our new Director of First Impressions ☕
SMR Laterals in Crookwell is hiring a Receptionist to be the friendly face that greets our clients and keeps our busy office humming along.
Our clients aren't just numbers to us. They're the neighbours, local businesses, and farming families we've known for years. We need someone who gets that.
What you'd be doing: → Welcoming clients and making them feel at home → Juggling calendars for eight team members → Keeping our records and systems in order → A bit of everything else that keeps an office running
What we're looking for: → A genuinely friendly manner → Good organisational instincts → Happy to learn new systems → No experience necessary. Your attitude matters most
It's a full-time role with a supportive team, study support options, and the kind of variety you get in a regional practice.
If you're interested (or know someone who'd be perfect), send a CV and brief cover letter to Tim Allen at [email protected]
